The 10 most popular films on Netflix this week: December 2023

The Netflix top ten films chart has a fresh board this week. We now know what everyone was watching on the streaming giant in the week heading into Yule. 

Leading the charge at number one is Zack Snyder’s Rebel Moon—Part One: A Child of Fire. In its debut week, this sci-fi epic has garnered a staggering 54.1million hours of viewing. Critics may not have been impressed, but enough Snyderheads have clearly been tuning into the space saga.

Closely following is Sam Esmail’s Leave the World Behind at number two. Having spent three weeks in the top ten, this apocalypse thriller has amassed 46.7m hours of viewership.

Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget takes the third spot, with 25.4m hours viewed. This animated delight continues to charm audiences with its feathered protagonists and their quest for freedom.

The fourth position is claimed by The Super Mario Bros. Movie, now in its fourth week in the top ten. This animated adventure brings the iconic video game characters to life along with a scintillating performance by Jack Black on ‘Peaches.’

Adam Sandler and Bill Burr-voiced animated film Leo, at number five, has secured 12.9million hours of viewing. Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms’s holiday-themed Family Switch takes the sixth spot, having spent four weeks in the top ten.

The seventh position goes to the Hallmark-esque Christmas flick Holiday in the Vineyards, with 10.6 million hours viewed. As we round out the top ten, familiar holiday classics make an appearance. Dr. Seuss’ The Grinch and How the Grinch Stole Christmas secure the eighth and ninth positions, respectively, with 7.9m and 8.9m hours viewed, spreading festive cheer and nostalgia in equal doses.
